Goals
Kraus & Naimer’s main goal was to enhance the quality of multilingual content and to adapt it to the (localized) needs of their global sales agencies by finding a translation management system that would allow them to handle and manage all translations through a single source.
Challenges
The company’s need for multilingual content has increased significantly because of its growing global presence. Therefore, they were looking for a systematic approach to solve this challenge, and they also wanted to address their increased use of digital platforms.
Results
While Kraus & Naimer is still in the early stages of memoQ implementation, they already feel the impact on the quality and consistency of their technical terminology. They estimate to save at least 50% of time on translations and thus double their productivity.

Onboarding and support

The team has been extremely satisfied with the technical support of memoQ as all their minor issues were promptly resolved.
Features
